Florida native Sean Chambers takes a lot of pride in the fact that he was mentored by longtime Howlin’ Wolf guitarist Hubert Sumlin.The chain continued on, as Chambers played leads in Sumlin’s band until his passing in 2011.
Chambers' latest release, That’s What I’m Talkin’ About, is a tribute to Sumlin inside and out, and served as the final production credit for Ben Elliott, who suddenly died in April 2020 (but not before becoming something of a go-to guy for talents like Keith Richards, Steve Miller and Levon Helm).
Though Chambers’ peers are falling one by one, he carries on with his six-stringed virtuosity, and will perform at Tampa's Skipper’s Smokehouse this weekend on Saturday, July 9.
